    Great guacamole and fresh chips. Perfect margaritas and full bar. The house specials are delicious, the basic combo enchiladas, not so much. Stick with the specials and you can't go wrong, especially the carnival. Stellar and very responsive service. We will definitely try Guillermo's again.

    We had reservations for an outside table.. good thing as they were busy!! We had two large groups next to us so the service was a little slower than normal. But we had great dinner! I had the Enchiladas Suiza which are my favorite… sooo good with beans and rice. Everyone enjoyed their dinners.. the others ordered Carne Asada and the shrimp dish with bacon which is delicicious too..Very happy diners. Will be back soon!!

    The live music was a little too loud to make conversation easy, and the appetizer was served after the entrees…but as always, the food was spectacular.

    Great service at this place. Food was very good. When visiting the desert, I always try to plan a meal at Guillermos. Margaritas are good but just purchase them individually...got a pitcher of them and it did not seem like a value.

    Food is slowly going downhill. Used to be one of our favorite Mexican places but just not quite what it used to be.
